            The little brat juvenile Blue Herons attack their parents when they fly in. They have a ferocious appetite.  The parents swallow a fish and start digesting it, then regurgitate it for the young. If you have a large enough screen you can see how the parent closes the protective eye membrane to prevent eye injury.
